How to fetch the data for this report template​

You will need to run a crawl for report template to generate report. When report has been generated and you have crawl id you can fetch data for the report using the following query:

query GetReportStatForCrawl(
    $crawlId: ObjectID!
    $reportTemplateCode: String!
    $after: String
   ) {
      getReportStat(
        input: {crawlId: $crawlId, reportTemplateCode: $reportTemplateCode}
      ) {
        crawlStructuredDataBlocks(after: $after, reportType: Basic) {
          nodes {
            url
            schemaType
            issuesSummary
            blockCount
            errorCount
            warningCount
            validationResult
            issues
          }
          totalCount
          pageInfo {
            endCursor
            hasNextPage
          }
